WASHINGTOX, Nov. 18.—-The annualreport of Commissioner of Internal Rev-enue Mason, covering the operations ofthe bureau fcr the fiscal year ended June30, 1889, was made public Sunday. Thereport shows that the internal revenuereceipts from all sources during theyear were $130,894,434, or$5,894,434inorethan the estimate in the last annual re*port from the bureau, and it is esti-mated that receipts during the currentfiscal year will reach $135,000,000. Therevenue from spirits during the pastfiscal year aggregated $74,312,306, an in-crease of S5,006,039 over the precedingyear; from fermented liquors $23,723,-835, or $399,016 more than during th«preceding year; from toba ceo in its va-rious forms 531,866,860, an increase of91,204,428 over the preceding year; fromoleomargarine $S&4,247, against $864,139during the preceding year; and frommiscellaneous sources $97,284, or $72,335less than during the preceding year.The percentage of the cost of collectingthis revenue was a fraction less tLau3 2-10 per cent., which is exactly thesame percentage of cost for the preced-ceding fiscal year.

The report embraces the followingstatistics relating to the production ofspirits throughout the country: Th«whole number of grain distilleries reg-istered during the fiscal year was 1,440,of which 1,967 were operated; an increaseduring- the year of 140 in the number ofregistered and of 238 in the number ope-rated. The larger increase, both in thenumber registered and in the numberoperated, occurred in the class of dis-tilleries having the smaller capacitiesfor the production of spirits, there hav-ing been an increase of 142 in the num-ber of distilleries of this class registeredand of 170 in the number operated.

In the class of larger distilleries therewas a decrease pf two in the numberregistered, bat there was an increase of68 in the nuTuber operated. There were3,136 fruit distilleries registered and3,072 operated* && increase of 442 in thenumber registered and 465 in the num-ber operated during the1 fiscal yaar. Thetotal number of grain, molasses and fruitdistilleries registered and operated dur-ing the year are 4,57e and 4 $4» respect-ively. - v

The number of bushels of grain usedin the production of spirits during theyear amounted to 20,990,924, an increaseof 4,868,415 bushels ever the amountused in the preceding year, and 235,869less than the average for the last teayears; 82,887,456 gallons of spirits wer*produced from grain during the year,an increase of 19,499,296 gallons overthe production of the preceding year,and 4,161,150 gallons more than theaverage production for the last tenyears.

The Commissioner estimates the qusn*tity of distilled spirits in the UnitedStates, except what may have been incustoms bonded warehouses on October1, 1889, at 102,050,982 gallons; this quan-tity being distributed as follows: India*tillery and special bonded warehouses,62,674,200 gallons; in hands of wholesaleliquor dealers, 15,255,882 gallons; inhands of retail liquor dealers, 24,720,900gallons. During the year 406 illicitstills were seized, and 236 persons con-nected with them were arrested.

The report furnishes the followingstatistics relating to the production oftobacco, snuff, cigars and cigarettes dur-ing the year: Total production of tobao*co and snuff for the year, 235,147,279pounds, an increase of 12,280,450 poundsover the preceding fiscal year. Produc-tion of cigars and cheroots 3,869,084,965;<tl cigarettes 2,398,195,110, or a totalproduct of cigars, cheroots and cigar-ettes amounting to 6,267,280,075 innumber, against 5,889,655,175 dut'ing thepreceding fiscal year.

A statement is included in the Com-missioner's report showing the numberof cigars and cigarettes manufactured inthe different States during the calendaryear 1888, from which it appears thatNew York leads the list both as a cigarand cigarette manufacturing State, hav-ing produced during that year 1,108,404,-631 cigars and 906,998,780 cigarettes.Pennsylvania comes second as a cigarmanufacturing State, having produced944,711,60s cigars, but only 19,100 cigar-ettes. Ohio stands thirds in cigar man-ufacture, having produced 294,871,159.North Carolina stands second in cigar-ette manufacture, having produced 564,-542,050; Virginia fourth, 530,842,000, andMaryland fifth, 148,647,140.

BALTIMORE, NOV. Id.—An ixn^jottsomass meeting under the auspices of theCatholics was held at the Academy ofmusic last night for the purpose of ad-vaucing the high license movement«The meeting was presided over by Car-dinal Gibbous, and upon the stage wereArchbishops Ireland, of St Paul: Elder,of Cincinnati; Bishop Virtue, of England;Monsi^ror McColgan and a l&rg-e num-ber of priests. Speeches were made byCardinal Gibbons, Rev. James Nugent,of England; Rev. Dr. Cleary, of Wiscon-sin; Archbishop Ireland, of St Paul, andBishop Keane. The following resolu-tions were adopted:

"The Catholic clorgy and laity of Bal-timore, recognizing the gigantic evil*of intemperance, imperiling the inter*ests and well being of the State andsociety, and casting about for a meanswhich will diminish the evil and pavethe way to a complete moral restorationbelieve they see this remedy in highlicense. If they have been backwardin uniting in the efforts of maay of theirdistinguished fellow-citizen3 in the holycause it was not from ignorance of thegreat danger nor lack of heaf tfelt inter-est to avert it, but solely from their in-ability to compromise the sacred inter-ests of truth by accepting certain posi-tions which were sometimes found to bethe concomitants of such movementsunder non-Catholic auspices. It is re-solved that high license is the only-feasible and peaceful means of extermi-nating the deluge of vices and crimes ofwhich * drunkenness is the fruitful,source. The license should be put sohigh as to make it practically prohibi-tory as regards the multitude of low sa-loons." • • _ _ '••:•-.

HAIF A MINUTE LATE.

S o w It Happened That Mr. SmithMissed His Train.

Mr. Smith missed the train by justone-naif minmte, and he was in a furioustemper over the matter. He lived in apretty, country-like suburban village,*bout forty-five minutes' ride from thailarge city In which he had his place ofbusiness, and he was accustomed to takethis particular train every morning.Not once in three months did such athing happen as his being late for thetrain; but on this occasion he felt likedeclaring that half the time he had torush himself clear out of breath to reachIt, or else miss it. He was in that exas-perated state of mind where he wantedto blame somebody, abuse somebody; astate of mind which, in a condition ofdevelopment a little nearer the savage,would impel to acts o£ cruelty towardany thing or any person on whom anger©oi»!d be wreaked. The person on whom,in t ;3 instance, ue could, most quicklyand Jith the least impunity cast blamewas his wife. It was all her fault.Why could not she manage householdaffairs BO that he could get his breakfastearlier? He worked like a slave at hisbusiness ten hours, a dr.y; he gave herlull control of the house and furnished,money to run it; sho had a servant, «ndit was pure and utter shiftlesfeness inher, that breakfast could cot be ready inproper time. Thus, watXT flashing eyes,soliloquized Mr. Smith as, with anger-flashed face, he watched the train dis-appearing in the distance.

It was a full hour and a half till thenext train; it was nearly half a milebMk to Mr. Smith's house. He pacedback and forth nervously for a few min-utes on the station platform, debatingin his mind whether he should waitthere for the next train or go back home.As he mused, his anger grew. He wouldgo back home and give his vrife such apiece of his mind as she would rememberfor months. She should be made to feelthat it was no light matter to harebreakfast five minutes late. He turnedbis face homeward and stamped heavilyalong, with the air of a man determinedto do a desperate deed. His face wasflushed with anger and his eye gleamedfiercely.

But, as he hastened along, somehowcr othor his attention was diverted bythe song of a bird among the trees thatlined his path. He looked up involun-tarily. How brightly the sun was shin-ing; how blue the sky was; how balmyand fragrant the air; how peaceful everything appeared as he looked off throughthe green spaces on either side of thevillage street. The trees wore puttingforth their tenderest green; so was thegrass. He noticed the fragrance of thecrab-apple and wild-plum blossoms; hedistinguished the peculiar strain of abird be used to hear in boyhood. It wasthe wood-thrush. He .had listened tot'aat bird when, years ago, he had walkedin the meadows and lanes with the pret-ty, shy young- girl whom his heart wasthen bent on winning for his wife. Shewas his wife now. She was the motherof thi-eerosy, active children; they werehis and bers. She was not as pretty now

**s she was then; 3ho was thin and care-worn. The plump rosiness and merrysmile were, for the most part, gone.But what a good, true wife she had beento him. How had her economy andiaithfulness helped him in getting thei*mt ire now had in the world. Howlittle she saw of the outsiae world, or *tdiverting pleasures. How soif-deaying

and uncomplaining she hpd b&e&, anawhat a devoted limUier Ivtueircuildrcs!And on that bright, sunshiny morninghe had been thinking hard thoughts c!her and meditating what sharp, cuttingwords he could say to her—and all for atrivial little loss of an hoar from busi-

Mr. Smith's pace slackened; hisrelaxed; his -heart molted.

On such a morning he could not, wouldnot, by harsh words mar the harmonyand beauty of the sunshine and birdsand the green things growing. No; ifhe could not speak kindly, he wouldhold his peace.

As Mr. Smith noared his home, he felta certain shrinking from meeting hiswife directly. He almost feared hemight betray on his countenance someof the harsh thoughts he had beenthinking. So he went around the sideof the house and entered the kitchendoor. Bridget was standing with a per-plexed and exasperated expression onher face, looking into the kitchen stove,in which smouldered a dark, dying fire.

"What is the matter, Bridget?""Faith, sur, it's the stove that breaks

me heart entirely. The grate is brokenand the stove-pipe smoke*, and whin Isthrive to make a quick fire, here's theway it serves me."

"Well, Bridget, I believe it is all myfault Your mistress has told me manytimes to bring a new grate from the city,and also to send a man to dean out thestove-pipe and chimney. X will put thisdown in my cote-book and bring thenew grate this evening, and Pat Mc-FlynB, the tinner, shall be sent right«p this morning to dean and fix thepipe."

''Oh, thank ye, sur," said Bridget,with a brightening countenance. "Andcould Fat fl* the clsthern, too? Thepump has been broken a long toimeand keeps me back in my work andbreaks me back drawing- water wid arope.**

Again Mr. Smith's conscience smotehim. How often had his wife asked himto send a man to fix the cisteru?

"Yes, Bridget, the cistern shall befixed this very day."

"Well, sur, thin I think 111 atay. Iwas just tellin' the mistress that Iwouldn't work any longer wid such in-conveniences, but if the stove and cis-thern are fixed a poor girl can get

Mr. Smith made another weraorandumin his book and passed on through tb<*dining-room towards his wife's room.He noticed that hor plate indicated anuntasted breakfast. Softly he openedthe door of their room. His wife start-ed up h&9tily, with an expression ofalarmed inquiry on her face. Her eyeswere wet with tears. The baby, still inits night clothes, was fretting in thecfadle; while a little two-year-old, part-ly dressed, tugged at her skirt.

"And so you missed the train—break-fast was late—well t can't help i t -Bridget is going to leave, too," and thepoor little woman covered her face withher hands and burst into sobs and tears.She fully expected angry complaintsfrom her husband and, in some vagueway, she felt she wan to blame. Shecould not compass every thing and thebabies were so troublesome. Oh, didevery young mother have such a hardtime as she did?

"Why, darling, what is the matter?"aaid Mr. Smith, putting his arms aroundhis wife, and drawing her to him.4'Cotne: don't mind. I think it is reallymostly my own fault. I have comethrough the kitchen and I find Bridgethas so much trouble with the stove beingbroken and the chimney smoking that Iwonder she can. get breakfast at alL"

'•I ought to get up in time to-see thatyou have breakfast early," sobbed thepoor little woman; "but Bridget is socross this morning sad I—I am sotired."

"No wonder, darling, that jon aretired, with the care of these big babieswearing on you ail the time. You haveno business to have any care of break-fast at all, and you shall not have afterthis. You need your good morning napand you shall have it. Bridget is allright. I'm going to get that brokenstove and cistern fixed to-day, and thenif Bridget can't get breakfast in timewell find some other way to do. Comenow, cheer up and 1*11 help you dressthese rogues; I have plenty of time be-fere the next train."

How wonderful is the effect upon thephysical nature of a spiritual impulse!How quickly can an uplifted andstrengthened spirit energize andstrengthen the body! Every thingseemed instantly changed for poor, de-jected little Mrs. Smith. She laid hercheek on her husband's breast, feelingwhat a haven of strength and peace itwas. How dear and precious was hislove and protection. Her eyes bright-ened and her cheeks glowed* Her weari-ness and depression, which had beenutter wiseiy, gave way to a delightfulfeeing of repose and- loving happiness.In the midst of the most prosaic sur-roundings, her heart was full of thefinest and most inspiring1 emotion.

"Dear, dear Love, how good you aw,"she said. "How you have changed theaspect of every thing for me thi3 naora*ing. Had you reproached me, as manyhusbands would have done, I wouldhave> aunk in the deepest anguish. NowI feel strong—strong and happy."

Releasing his wife with a tender kiss,Mr. Smith took the baby from the cradleand merrily drew its stockings and shoeson its little, plump, kicking, rosy feet.Then he brushed out the other little fel-low's curls and buttoned his shoes. Wii*lie, the oldest, had slipped out of thehoufft. and Mr. Smith went to look forhim, and found that he had taken ad-

runtage of an insocme lock on the gateterua off up the street. Bringing himback, Mr. Smith got the hatchet and in% few minutes bad the gate fixed so thatMaster Willie could not open it. Hiswife smilingly opened the front door,and, seeing what had been done, ex*claimed: "Oh, I am so relieved to findthat Willie can not get out of the yard.It has bedn such a trouble that he couldopen the gate."

And now it was time to start for thenext train, if he stopped to order the stoveand pump man to do the promised work.So, gaily kissing his wife and children,once more Mr. Smith started for the sta-tion. As he walked along with a lightand cheerful heart he mus«d:

"How cheap a thing is happiness,after all, and yet how easy to turn it in-to misery! If I had given way to jaytemper this morning, I would havegratified a momentary impulse of un-reasonable anger and left behind meaching and discouraged hearts. ThankHeaven for *,he influence of the song ofbird and scent of flower; and thankHeaven, too, for all the gentle influ-ences and sweet affections that canmake the most uneventful life a bless*ing. Dear, good wife! and dear, precious,little children! Thank God, I ha?4 leftthem happy this morning, if I did missthe train."—Helen E. Stanette, in TheInterior.

Down in bustling Birmingham thereis one quiet spot It is at the oratory ofSt. Philip Nevi, It yon were to happenwithin the walls of the oratory someday, just at the hour when sunset is be*ing followed by twilight, you mighthear stealing down the long, silent cor-ridors of the building sweet strains ofmusic drawn from the strings of a vio-lin by a skilled and delicate touch. Ifyou, should ask one of the robed fatherswhence the music comes he would prob-ably smile and answer:

"It is His Eminence, the Superior,whois playing.*

The answer would "be correct, for it ison an old and valuable Stradivarius thatthe greatest churchman In England, andone of the greatest masters of the Eng-lish language finds relaxation and peaceas the evening falls. And the master ofthe violin is none other than John Hen*ry Newman, who was at Oxford the col-lege mate of Gladstone, Posey, HurreU,Froadc, Keble and others; who was or-dained in the English Church and wasone of the select university preachersand vicar of S t Mary's, Oxford, but whois now a Cardinal in the Roman Church,which he joined over forty years ago.He is one of England's rigorous old men.He is older than either Gladstone orThe 0" Gorman Mahon, he ia almost asold as the nineteenth century, for hewas born in 1801. But as the Cardinalgently touches Ms violin in the twilighthours, he is content in the belief thathis life work is done. He has passedthrough the storm and now is safelymoored in a peaceful haven. In the ora-tory he is quiet and undisturbed, and hisdays pass peacefully and without dis-turbing incident. The revolution of re-ligious thought which the Earl of Bea>consfield declared to have been thegreatest that England had seen inmore than three hundred years, &ndin which Newman was a leading figure,is a thing of tba past, and I found thatCardinal Newman's popularity extendedthxough all ranks and denomina-tions. Among the visitors to his retreatyou will find men and women of variouscreeds and from almost everywhere.There is but one opinion as to his stand-ing as a master in the literary art.Years ago an eminent English writersaid that if he were sentenced to solitarycouuuement and allowed his choice ofbooks, being limited to one or twowriters, he would prefer some of New-man's to even Shakspeare himself. Thiswill give an idea of the manner in whichNewman is regarded here.

As has been said, the days of the Car-dinal are very quiet days now. He isapproaching1 ninety years of age, and hasall his life been a vigorous worker. Herarely preaches, and writes but little.He still rises early, as he has alwaysdone, and his mornings are given to devo-tions, and to looking after the affairs ofthe oratory that he loves so well andwhich he established some years ago.The love that the students and priestsat the oratory bear for tho aged Cardinalis touching. Between &H of them andthe Cardinal the warmest friendship ex-ists. The youngest az well as the oldestof them finds in the old man one who isalways ready to sympathize with andassist them when called upon. Thesame gentle character which made himso popular &t Oxford has not beenchanged by age.

And so the days at the oratory pass onpeacefully and quietly as the oM mancould wish. There is no bitterness inthem. All the bitterness Is JTOTMS. Theopponents of other days are his friends.Re has no enemies m the evening of hislife. And so in the evening we canleave him, a smile on his gentle old face,with his old violin, softly playing theairs of other days. And so let the nightquietly fall.—London Letter.

IN WORKING CLOTHES.A'.Bemlnlscenee ol the Historical Drafs

Riois In New York,At the time ot the draft riots in New

York, the Thirty-seventh Massachu-setts Regiment, with three others, wasdetailed from the Arinj of the Potomaoto preserve the peaco of the city. Thodraft was to be resumed on the 19th ofAugust, and a serious outbreak waafeared. The rioters asserted that theyhad twenty thousand men well armedand organized. They had, at all events,a special spite against the Massachu-setts soldiers, and declared that notou«of them should get away aliv*.

Colonel Edwards, of the Thirty-bev-enth, accepted the challenge thusthrown down. Said h« to GeneralCauby: "I wish to bring my regimentto the city* to station them as specialguard of the drafting proceedings, thatno other troops be in sight, and thaithey display only the Mftssachosetftiflag except in case of actual conflict*when they wfU also fly the UnitedStates colors."

The request was at once acceded to*and the regiment waa brought into thecity, where it bivouacked for thenight on the ground at the Battery..

The next day the drafting begananew, and was proceeded with withoutany hostile demonstration. In ttMevening several regiments of the NewYork militia marched on to the Wash-ington parade-ground for their drewparade. Their appearance was fine/With their showy and uutarnfshed uni-forms and their full brass bands. Theirfriends, many *h&tts&ad8 in number,applauded loudly as they went throughthe various exercises in ft highly cred-itable manner.

As the last regiment marched off, th»Thirty-Seventh marched on. The con-trast could not have been greater.From the holiday parade to ftn exhibi-tion of veterans fresh from the fieldsof deadly strife* the change waa in-stantaneous and striking* The curiousthrong became silent in a moment-Men, women and children all teemed torealize that they were looking upon aleaf from the great book oi war.

Those sturdy, bronz*! men were inthe midst of their term of service*Their dilapidated garment*, whilemade as presentable as posaibiU, hadprotected their wearer* la the trenchesacross the Rappahannock, in the terri-ble marches in pursuit of Lee, had beentorn by the cannonade at Gettysburg,soaked and rent in the hand-built en-trenchment* of that fatal field and onthe horrible byways of Catoctin Mount*

Never did the sturdy arms of Drum-Major Gaffney wake more animatingresponses than when his drum corpsperformed its part that evening; thaentire regiment seemed nerved to do itsvery best From the first commandgiven by the Colonel, every movementw&s executed as though by an auto-maton.

From the assembled multitude burstan irresistible wave of applause, soearnest and long-continued that thesucceeding orders were delayed to al-low it to abate.

Finally the order was given to * *raisearms"—the most difficult manoeuverknown to infantry tactics for a regi-ment to perform in cadence. As thougha single intelligence animated the en-tire line, every back was bent as ore*and every form assumed its perpendic-ular.

The enthusiasm of the surroundingmultitude could no longer be retained.Like a peal of thunder applause andcheers burst forth, drowning everyeffort of Colonel Edwards to make hisvoice heard, and the parade was sum-marily dismissed. — Youth's Com-panion.

" What & it they put in IVOKV SOAP, Doctor, to obtain its healing

qualities?'*

" N o Rectal ingredient is used. It is simply because the IVORY

is as nearly pure as it is possible to make soap. Any soap that is

as pure as Ac IVORX will be equally as healing ir* its effect, but the

difficulty 1$ to find a soap so pure. The profession recommend this

non-irritating soap simply to cleanse the wound, then nature does the

rest You can readily appreciate what the effect would be if your

neck had been washed with an impure and adulterated soap. Avoid

colored and highly perfumed soap, for the coloring and perrume are

so often used to disguise something the soap should not contain."

A WORD OF WARNING.

There are many white soaps, each represented to be " just as good as the 'Ivory';"they ARE NOT, but fike all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities tfthe genuine. Ask fcf "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it.

A FITTING TEXT. jSermon by Rev. T. Do Witt Tal-

D, D.

» b IMinnd at Brladtot, Italy, andVauTc Voyage with Jowephm Form*

th* Apt Sntyect at v

Dlscour**.

The subject for Dr. Talmage's recentsermon i-n Briudisi, Italy, was "A Med-iterranean Voyage," and he took for histext the latter portivu o* the forty-fourth Terse of the twenty-seventhchapter of Acts: "And so it came topass that they escaped all safe to land.**The preacher said:i. Having visited your historical city,which we desired to see because it wasthe terminus of the most famous road ofthe ages, the Rom*n Appian way, andfor its mighty fortress, overshadowing acity which even Hannibal's hosts couldnot thunder down, we must to-morrowmorning leave your harbor, and aftertouching at Athens and Corinthvoyage about the Mediterranean toAlexandria. Egypt I have been read-ing this morning in my New Testamentof a Mediterranean voyage in an Alex-andrian ship. It was this very month ofNovember. The vessel was lying in aport not very far from here. On boardthat vessel were two distinguishedpassengers—one, Josephus, the histori-an, as we have strong reasons to be-lieve; the other, a convict, one Paulby name, who was going to prison forupsetting things, or, as they termed it,"turning the world upside down," Thisconvict had gained the confidence ofthe capUin. Indeed, 1 think that Paulknew almost as much about the seas as4id the captain. He had been ship-wrecked three times already; he haddwelt much of his life amidst capstans,andyardarras, and cables, and storms,and he knew what be was talking about.Seeing the equinoctial storm was com-ing, and perhaps noticing something un-seaworthy in the vessel, he advised thecaptain to stay in the harbor. But Ihear the captain tutu the first matetalkingtogether. They say: "We<*n not afiord to take the ad-vice of this landsman, and he aminister. He may be able to preachvery well, but I don't bel^vft ! e kaows» marlinspike from A loft tackier All iaboard! Cast off! Shift the helm forheadway! Who fears the Mediterranean?"They hud gone only a little way outwbe* » whirlwind, called Eurocly-•don, made the torn sail its- turban,4book the mast as you would bran-,d'sh a spear, and tossed the hulk intothe heavens. Overboard with the can*©!It is,all washed with salt water andworthless now, and there are no marineinsurance companies. AH hands ahoyand'out with the anchors!

Great consternation comes on crewand passengers. The sea monsterssnort in the foam, and the billows claptheir hands in glee of destruction. Ina lull of the storm I bear a rhain clank.It is the chain of the great apostle ashe walks the deck or holds fast to therigging amidst the lurching ofthe ship—the spray dripping fromhis long beard as he criesout to the crew: "Now, I ex-hort you to be of good cheer, for thereshall be no loss of any roan's life among

. you, but of tho ship. For th*re stood byme this night the angel of God, whose Iam* and whom I «**rve, saying: Fear not,Paul; thou must bt brought before

Oosar; and, lo, God hath given thee all.them that sail with thee."

Fourteen days have passed, and therew no abatement of the storm. It is mid-night. Standing on the lookout, themam peers into the darkness, and, by aflash of lightning, sees the long, whiteline of uFv*kers, &s& knows they mustbe coming near to some country, andlean that in a few moments the vesselwill be shivered on the rocks. The-ship flies like chaff in the tornado.They drop the sounding line, and by thelight of the lantern they see it is twentyfathoms. Speeding along a littla fur-ther they drop the line again, and bythe light of the lantern they see it isfifteen fathoms. Two hundred andseventy-six souk within a few feet ofawful shipwreck! Tufc managers ofiao vessel, pretending they want tolook over the side of the shipand undergird it, get into the smallboat, expecting in it to escape, but Paulsees through the sham, and teUa themthat if they go off in the boat it will bethe death of them. The vessel strikes!The planks spring! The timbers crack!The vessel parts in thD thundering surge!Oh, what wild struggling for life! Herethey leap from plank to plank. Herethey go under as if they wouldnever rise, but, catching hold of atimber, come floating and panting on itto the beach,. Here strong swimmersspread thoir arms through the wavesuntil their chins plow the sand, and theyrise up and wring out their wet locks onthe beach. When the voll of the ship is-called two hundred and seventeen peo-ple answer to their names. "And so,".says my text, "it came to pass that they•escaped all safe to land."

I learn from this subject:Urst, that those "who^gefc iirrioto

trouble will not »Uy lib help us out.These shipraen got Paul out of fairhavens into the storm, but as soon asthe tempest dropped, upon themthey wanted to go off in the smallboat, caring - nothing for *rhatbecanie of Paul ar.d the passin-g-era. Ah, me! human nature is thesame in all ages. They whoget us into trouble a<*vcr stop to help U9out. TL,«y who tompt that young maniuto a life of dissipation will be the first

to laugh at his imbecility, and to drophim out of decent society. Gamblers al-ways make fun of the losses of gamblers.They who tempt you into the" con-test with fists, saying, "I will backyou," will be the first to run.* Lookover all. the predicaments of your lifeand count the names of those who havegot you into those predicaments, andtell me the name of one who ever helpedyou out. They were glad enough toget you out of fair havens, butwhen, with damaged rigging, youtried to get into harbor, did they holdfor you a plank or throw you a rope?Not one. Satan has got thousands ofmen into trouble, but he never got oneout He led them into theft, but hewould not hide the goods or bail out thedefendant. The spider sL^ws the flythe way over the gossamer bridge intothe cobweb; but it never shows the wayout of the cobweb over the gossamerbridge. X thinjfc& -hat there wereplenty of fast young men to help the-prodigal to spend his money; but whenhe had wasted his substance in riotdusliving they let him go to the swine past-ures, while they betook themselves tosome other new-comer. They who takePaul out of fair havens will be of nohelp to him when he gets into the break-ers of Melita.

I remark again, as a lesson learnedfrom the text, that it is dangerous to re*fuse the counsel of competent advisers.Paul told them not to go out with thatship. They thought he knew nothingabout i t They said: "He is only aminister!" They went, and the shipwas destroyed. There are a greatmany people who now say of *ainis*ters: "They know nothing about theworld. They can not talk to usT Ah,my friends, it is not necessary to havethe Asiatic cholera before you can giveit medical treatment in others. It isnot necessary to have your arm brokenbefore you can know how to splinter *fracture. And we wbo stand in the pul-pit, and in the office of a Christianteacher, know that there are cer-tain styles of belief and certain kinds ofbehavior that will lead to destruction ascertainly as Paul knew that if that shipwent out of fair havens it would go todestruction. "Kejoice, O young man, inthy youth, and let thy heart cheer the*in the days of thy youth; but knew thoufor all these things God will bring theeinto judgment." Wo may not knowmuch, but wejenow that.

Young people refuse the, advice ofparents. They say: "Father ia over-suspicious and mother is getting old."But those parents have been on thesea of life. They know where thestorms sleep, and during their voy-age have seen a thousand bat-tered hulks marking the placewhere beauty burned, and intel-lect foundered, and morality Hank.They are old sailors, having answeredmany a signal of distress, and enduredgreat stress of weather, and gone scud-ding under bare poles; and the old folksknow what they are talking about.Look at that man—in his cheek theglow of infernal fires. His eyeflashes not as once with thought,but with low passion. His brainis a *ewer through which impurityfloats, and his heart the trough in whichlust wallows and drinks. Men shudderas the leper passes and parents cry:"Wolf! wolf!" Yet he once said theLord's Prayer at his mother's kneeand against that iniquitous browonce pressed a pure mother's lip. Buthe refused her counsel. He wentwhere euroclydonS have their lair. Hefoundered on the sea, while all hellechoed at the roar of the wreck: LostPacifies! Lost Pacifies!

Another lesson from the subject isthat Christians are always safe.

There did not seem U> be much chancafor Paul getting out of that shipwreck,;did there? They had not, in those days,rockets with which to throw ropes overfoundering vessels. Their lifeboatswere of but little worth. Andyet, notwithstanding all the dan-ger, my text says that Paul escapedsafe to land. And so it will always bewith God's children. They may beplunged into darkness and trouble, butby the throne of the eternal God, I as-sert it, "they shall all escape safe toland.1

Sometimes there comes a storm ofcommercial disaster. The cables break.The masts fall. The caigoes are scat-tered over the sea. Oh! what strugglingand leaping on kegs, and hogsheads, andcorn-bins, and store-shelves! And yet,whiie they may have it so very hard incommercial circles, tlie goods trustingin God, all come safe to land.

Wrecker?, go out on the ocean's beachand find the shattered hulks of vessels,and on the streets of our gTeat citiesthere is many a wreck. Mainsail slitwith bankers pen. Hulks abeam's endon insurance counters. Vast creditssinking, having suddenly sprung a leak.Yet all of them who are God'schildren shall at last, through Hisgoodness and mercy, escape safe to land.The Scandinavian warriors used to drinkwine out of the skulls of tba enemiesthey had slain. Even so God will heJLpus out of the conquered i i^ and disastersof life to drink sweetness and strengthfor our souls.

You have, my friends, had illustra-tions in your own life of how God deliv-ers His people. I have had illustrationsin my own li£e of the same truth. I wasonce in what on your Mediterranean youcall a euroclydon, but what on the At-lantic we call P. cyclone, but the samestorm. The steamer Greece, of tirer Na-tional line, swuttg out into the riverMersey, at Liverpool, bound for NewYork. We had on board seven hundred,crew and passengers. We came together

strangers—Italians, Irishmen, English-men, Swedes, Norwegians, Americans.Two flags floated from the masts—British and American ensigns. Wehad a new TCssfil, oi; one so thor-oughly remodeled that the voyagehad around it all the uncertaintiesof a trial trip. The great steam-er felt its way cautiously out into thesea. The pilot was discharged; and,committing ourselves to ttit care of HimWho holdeth the winds in His fist, wewere fairly started on our voyage ofthree thousand miles. It was roughnearly all tha way—the sea with strongbuffeting disputing our path. Butone night, at eleven o'clock,after the lights had been put out,a cyclone—a wind just madeto tear ships to pieces—caught us in itsclutches. It came down so suddenlythat we had not time to take in the sailsor fasten the hatches. You may knowthat' the bottom of the Atlantic isstrewn with the ghastly work of cy-clones. Oh! they arc cruel winds.They have hot breath, as thoughthey came up from infernal fur-naces. Their merriment is the cryof affrighted passengers. Their play isthe foundering of steamers. And whena ship goes down they laugh until bothcontinents hear then. They go in eir-cles, or, as I describe them wish myhand, rolling on, rolling on, with fingerof terror writing on the white shefton the wave this sentence Of doom: "Letall that come -vithift this circle perish,Brigantinea go down, clippers go down,steamships go down." And the vessel,hearing the terrible vciceHSouches inthe surf, and as the waters gurglethrough the hatches and port-holesit lowers away thousands of feet*down,farther and farther, until at lastit strikes the bottom, and all is peace,for they have landed. Helmsman deadat toe wheel, engineer dead *mJMst theextinguished furnaces, captain dead intee gangway, passengers dead Isthe cabin. Buried in the greatcemetery of dead steamers, be-side the City of Boston, the Lexington, the President, the Cambria—waiting for the archangel's trumpet tosplit up the decks and wrench open thecabin-doors and unfasten the hatches. Ithought that I had seen storms on the seabefore, but all of them together mighthave come under one wing of that cy-clone. We were only eight hundred orsine hundred miles from home and iahigh expectation of soon seeing oarfriends, for there was no one onboard so poor ss not to havea friend. But it seemed ae if wowere to be disappointed. The mostof us expected then and there to die.There were none who made light of theperil save two. One was an Englishman,and he was drunk, and the other was anAmerican, and he was a fool! Oh! Whata time it was! A night to make one'shair turn white. We came out of theberths, and stood In the gangway, andlooked into the steerage, and sat inthe cabin. While seated there weheai^ overhead something like minuteguns. It was the bursting of the sails.We held on with both hands to keep ourplaces. Those who attempted to <xm*the floor came back bruised and gashed.Cups snd glasses were dashed tofragments; pieces c* the table,getting loose, swung across thejaloon. It seemed as if the hurri-cane took that great ship of thou-sands of tons and stood it on end, sadsaid: "Shall I sink it or let it go thisonce?" And then it same down withsuch force that the billows trampledover it, e&cb mounted of a fury. We feltthat every thing depended on the pro-pelling screw. If that stopped for an in-stant we knew the vessel would fall offinto the trough of the sea and sink, andso we prayed that the screw, whichthree times since leaving Liverpool hadalready stopped, inight not stop now.Oh! how anxiously we listened for theregular thump of the machinery, uponwhich our lives seemed to depend.After awhile some one said: 'Thescrew is stopped!" No; its soundhad only been overpowered by theuproar of the tempest, and webreathed easier again when we heardthe regular pulsations of the overtaskedmachinery going thump, thump, thump.At three o'clock in the morning thewater covered the ship from.prow tostern, and the skylights gare way!The deluge rushed in, and we felt thatone or two more waves like thatmust swamp us forever. As thewater rolled back and forward in thecabins and dashed against the walls itsprang half-way up the ceiling. Rush-ing through the skylights, as it camein with such terrific roar, there wentup from the cabin a shriek of horror,which I pray God I may never hearagain. I have dreamed the wholescene over again, but God has merci-fully kept me from hearing that onecry. Into it seemed(to h© compressedthe agony of expected shipwreck. Itseemed to say: "I shall never get homeagain! My children shall be orphaned,and my wife shall be widowed! I amlaunching now into eternity! IA twominutes I shall meet my OnA!"

There were about five hundred andfifty passengers in the steerage, j rid asthe water rushed in and toucji^d thefurnaces, aud began violently to hiss,the poor creatur«3 in the^isteerageimagined that the bou*i<> weregiving way. These passeti&ihn writhedin the water and in;"'tlo mud,some praying, some crying, %U terri-fied. Thftj made a ruija; for the deck.At& officer stood on dfecfe and beat theroback with blow after )itow. It was neces-sary. Thay could not have stood an in-stant on the deck. Ob! bo>v they beggedto get out of the hold, of the ship!

One woman, with a child in b«*rushed up and caught hold piof the officers and cried: "Bo let meout! I will help you! Do let meout! I can not die here!" Some gotdown-and prayed to the Virgin Mary,saying: "O blessed mother! keep us!Have mercy on us!" Some stood withwhite lips and fitei gsu*. silent in theirterror. Some wrung their, handsand cried out: "0 God! what shallI do? What shall I do?" Thetime came when the crewcould no longer stay oa the deck, andthe cry of the officer wa»: "BeiowJ al]hands below?" Our brave and sympa-thetic Captain Andrews—whose praise Ishall not cease to speak while I live-*had been swept by the hurricane frcn*his bridge, and had escaped very nar>rowly with his life. The cyclone seemedto stand on the deck, waving it*wing4 crying: "This ship is mine! Jhave captured it! Ha! ha! I will com»mand it! If God will permit I will sinfcit here and now! By a thousand ship*wrecks, I swear the doom of this vessel!'1

There was a lull in the storm; but onlythat it might gain additional furykCrash! went the life-boat on one side.Crash! went the life-boat on theother side. The great booins got loose,and, as with tlie heft of a thunderbolt,pounded the deck and beat the mast—the jib-boom, studding-sail boom andsquare-sail boom, with their strong*arms, beating time to the awful marchand music of the hurricane.

Meanwhile the ocean became phos*phorescent. The whole scene loofeedlike fire. The water dripping from therigging, there were ropes of fire; andthere were masts of fire; and there wasa deck of fire. A ship of fire, sailing on.a sea of fire, through anight of fire.May I never see any thing like it again!

Everybody prayed. A lad of twelveyears of age got down snd prayed for bitmother. "If I should give up," be said,"I do not know what would become ofmother." There were men who* Ithink, had not prayed for thirty years,who then got down on their knees.When a man who hast neglected Godall bis life feels that he has cometo bis last Ume it makes a very busynight. All of our sins and shortcom-ings pass through our minds. My ownUfe seemed utterly unsatisfactory. Icould only say: "Here, Lord, take meM l I D . I can not mend matters now.Lord Jesus, thou didst die for thechief of sinners. That's me! Itseenu, Lord, as if my work is done, Andpoorly dose, and upon Thy infinitemerry I cast myself, and in this bear ofshipwreck snd darkness commit myselfand her whom I hold by the hand toThee, O Lord Jesus! praying that itmay be a short struggle in the water,and that at the same instant wemay both arrive In gloryr Oh! I tellyou a man prays straight to tho markwhen he has a cyclone above him, anocean betieath him and an eternity soclose to him that he can feel its breatho n h i s c h e e k . ^/.••>.^N./I..

The night was long. At last we sawthe dawn looking through the port-holes. As in the olden timeT in thefourth watch of the night* Jesus camewalking on the aea, from wave cliff towave cliff: and when He puts His footupon a billow, though it may be tossedup with might it goes down. Hecried to the winds, Hushf Theyknew His voice. The waves knew Hisfoot. They died away. And "in theshining track of His feet I read theseletters on scrolls of foam and fire:. "Theearth shall be filled with the knowledgeof God as the waters cover the sea."The ocean calmed. The path ef thesteamer became morer and more mild;until, on the last morning outv the sunthrew around about us a glory such as

never witnessed before. God tcadea pavement of mosaic, reaching: fromhorizon to horizon, for all the splendorsoil earth and heaven to walk upon—a pavement bright enough, for thefoot of a seraph — bright enoughfor the wheels of an archangel'schariot. Asa parent embraces a child,and kisses away its grief, so- over thatsea, that had been writhing in agony inthe tempest, the morning threw its armsof beauty and of benediction, and thelips of earth and Heaven met.

It grew lighter. The clouds were hungin purple clusters along the sky; and,as if those purple clusters were pressedinto red wine and poured but tipon thesea, every wave turned iato crim-son. Yonder, fire cleft stood oppo-site to fire cleft; and heve a cloud,rent and tinged with light, seemedlike a palace with flames burs, ting fromthe windows. The whole scene lightedup until it seemed as if the angels ofGod were ascending and descendingupon stairs of fire, and the wave-crests,,changed into jasper, and crystal, andamethyst as they were flung towardthe beach, made no- think ofthe crowns of Heaven: cast before theThrone of the great*Jehovah. I leanedover the taffrail again, and said, withmore emotion than before: "Thy way,OGod, is in the sea, ami Thy path in tfcegreat waters!"

So, I thought, will: be the going oB. ofthe storm and night, of the Christian'slife. The darkTiesa will fold it& tentsand avray! The goldea feet of the risingmere will come skipping upon themountains, a«d all the wrathfulbillows of the; world's woe break intothe splendor of eternal joy. And so wecome into the- harbor. The cyclone be-hind U3. Our friends before- ua, God,

if the roll Q! the crow and tlie passengershad been called seven hundred soulswould have answered to their namesj,"And ao it cam« to pass V«at' w%all escaped to land.'* And mayGod grant that when all out-Sabbathson earth are ended we may find thatthrough * the rich mercy of oiur LordJesus Christ we nil have weathered thegale/; „.„..-

The Romantic Career of » Runaway S1»T«In Wanhtugtpu.

A letter from Centralia, in the newState of Washington, says: Thirty-sevenyears ago George Washington, a runa-way Virginia slave, Meacbed a littleprairie in the fork of the Chehalis andthe Skookumchuck, and seeing a finesupply of deer and pheasants he fixedhis camp there.

In the woods and solitude of thefar Northwest he was free and he washappy. He managed somehow to getsome potato seed and some fruit plants,and, later on, hogs and cattle. The pro-lific soil made him rich in hogs and cat-tle and corn and fruit and vegetables,but the white man began to come, andWashington discovered that the curse ofcolor was still upon him, and that hecould obtain no legal title to the soil tocultivated.

Ho adopted *»r1.on» ftxrod tents, tillthe war made him a free man. He mar-ried a colored woman, a native of theSandwich Islands, and when the rail-road people cjme to George's farm theymade a station there to secure supplies.They called it Centralia, as it was mid-way between Columbia and the Sound.They had no notion then that it wasalso the very heart of a magnificentfarm country, and that in its neighbor-hood the finest coal and iron liiiney inAmerica are to be had. Streets andvillas and churches and schools andhotels and banks, and newspaper officesnow occupy the spot where GeorgeWashington's flocks and hords used toroam, and where his corn grew. A gunaad a pair of blankets, were all hebrought to tho spot where Centraliastands to-day; but George Washingtonis now a big capitalist, probably the pos-sessor of half a million in bank-notes,and still owning three hundred acres oftown sites.

He is seventy-two, but liaie andfce&rty, and if he lives a dozen years hewill be a millionaire many times over.They tell me that in business he is asshrewd as a fox, but one is forcibly at-tracted to him by the kindly smile thatplays abo?it hi« features, telling plainlythat neither act? nor ininstice has «"vu_dth« disposition of th* runaway coloredVirginian. Moreover, every poor manwho comes here finds a friend in themanumitted slave, for he gives him «house lot for $150, and allows anyluugth of time to pay. He loves tofrtroll about tho town and watch itgrowing.
